About

Welcome to Agile in the kitchen! I’m Josefine and I am here to share with you batch cooking recipes that are easy, freezable and adaptable.

I am the cook and creator of all the recipes you find here. Some recipes have followed me from childhood, others I have picked up along the way. So pour yourself a cup of coffee, have a cinnamon roll and join me on this journey.

I started big batch cooking as a way to avoid spending time in the kitchen every night, especially when living in a crowded flat in London with both three and four flatmates, where kitchen time and space was a puzzle each night. Batch cooking and freezing meals provided me with a home cooked meal every night and a healthy lunch without encroaching on my flatmates kitchen time.

Agile in the kitchen is a play on words for my tendency of making up variations of the same recipe and my day job as a gymnastics coach. It was a very long time since I was agile on the competition floor, but I can still use my agility in the kitchen. Join me in this endeavour and learn with me along the way.

For a place to start, I suggest the recipe that started this journey, my homemade tomato sauce that have several different variations, now in an updated version. Another favoruite are my meatloaf recipes, stuffed with lots of goodness. Both recipes are batch cooking recipes I have made for years that fulfill all three requirements of easy, freezable and adaptable to start building your meal plan.
